Methanimine as a sink in the HCN and HNC solid state hydrogenation network
Joan Enrique-Romero, Thanja Lamberts
We aim to provide a systematic and quantitative description of the hydrogenation network connecting HCN and HNC to methylamine on interstellar water ices, while identifying dominan…
Can cyanide radicals drive molecular backbone growth on interstellar icy grains?
Germán Molpeceres, Joan Enrique-Romero
Motivated by the value of CN-bearing molecules as tracers of interstellar physical conditions, we investigate the reactions of adsorbed CN radicals with acetylene and ethylene (C2H…
Interstellar Chemistry of CN Radicals on Ices: The formation of CH3CN and CH3NC and potential connection to acetamide
Joan Enrique-Romero, Thanja Lamberts
Context. Among the most significant chemical functional groups of interstellar molecules are the class of nitriles, which are proposed as key prebiotic molecules due to their chemi…
Hydrogenation of HOCO and formation of interstellar CO: A not so straightforward relation
Germán Molpeceres, Joan Enrique-Romero, Atsuki Ishibashi +5
Carbon dioxide (CO) is one of the most important interstellar molecules. While it is considered that it forms on the surface of interstellar dust grains, the exact contribution…
Mass ejection and time variability in protostellar outflows: Cep E. SOLIS XVI
A. de A. Schutzer, P. R. Rivera-Ortiz, B. Lefloch +46
Protostellar jets are an important agent of star formation feedback, tightly connected with the mass-accretion process. The history of jet formation and mass-ejection provides cons…
Theoretical computations on the efficiency of acetaldehyde formation on interstellar icy grains
Joan Enrique-Romero, Cecilia Ceccarelli, Albert Rimola +3
Interstellar grains are known to be important actors in the formation of interstellar molecules such as H, water, ammonia, and methanol. It has been suggested that the so-calle…
Revisiting the reactivity between HCO and CH on interstellar grain surfaces
J. Enrique-Romero, S. Álvarez-Barcia, F. J. Kolb +7
Formation of interstellar complex organic molecules is currently thought to be dominated by the barrierless coupling between radicals on the interstellar icy grain surfaces. Previo…
Seeds of Life in Space (SOLIS). VI. Chemical evolution of sulfuretted species along the outflows driven by the low-mass protostellar binary NGC1333-IRAS4A
Vianney Taquet, Claudio Codella, Marta de Simone +8
Context. Low-mass protostars drive powerful molecular outflows that can be observed with mm and sub-mm telescopes. Various sulfuretted species are known to be bright in shocks and…
Reactivity of HCO with CH3 and NH2 on Water Ice Surfaces. A Comprehensive Accurate Quantum Chemistry Study
Joan Enrique-Romero, Albert Rimola, Cecilia Ceccarelli +3
Interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs) can be loosely defined as chemical compounds with at least six atoms in which at least one is carbon. The observations of iCOMs in st…
The census of interstellar complex organic molecules in the Class I hot corino of SVS13-A
E. Bianchi, C. Codella, C. Ceccarelli +12
We present the first census of the interstellar Complex Organic Molecules (iCOMs) in the low-mass Class I protostar SVS13-A, obtained by analysing data from the IRAM-30m Large Proj…
Can Formamide Be Formed on Interstellar Ice? An Atomistic Perspective
Albert Rimola, Dimitrios Skouteris, Nadia Balucani +4
Interstellar formamide (NH2CHO) has recently attracted significant attention due to its potential role as a molecular building block in the formation of precursor biomolecules rele…
The (impossible?) formation of acetaldehyde on the grain surfaces: insights from quantum chemical calculations
Joan Enrique-Romero, Albert Rimola, Cecilia Ceccarelli +1
Complex Organic Molecules (COMs) have been detected in the interstellar medium (ISM). However, it is not clear whether their synthesis occurs on the icy surfaces of interstellar gr…
